After spending time in a hot Finnish sauna, bathers would leave the hot, smokey cabin (sweating profusely), and then take roll in the snow to both cool down and cleanse the dirt from their bodies. {mprestriction ids="3,4,26,18,6,7,8,9,14,18"} COLD THERAPY It’s a bathing tradition that evolved out of the basic need to cool down and get clean; however, the Finnish people also acknowledged that the practice was invigorating.

The intricate relationship that the skin has with the body represents a complex network of communication via the entire integumentary structure: nervous system (neurons for sensory function), immune system (healing response and defenses), circulatory system (surface capillaries and oxygenation), and the digestive system.
